The moment Steiner saw her, he knew he must pop the question. He knew that if the answer wasn't 'yes', he would surely die in agonizing pain. He had only known her for a month, but he knew he must ask the question. If he didn't, it would be worse than her saying 'no'! It would be like forgetting to breath and collasping from lack of air!

He stepped up to the blonde beauty and took her hand.

"Quistis Trepe," He slowly knelt down on one knee, keeping eye contact with her the whole way.

Her eyes widened, and her face started turning red.

"Adelbert, dare I ask what you're doing?"

Steiner smiled. "I humbly request the honor of a romantic dinner for two... with you."

Quistis burst out laughing, and Steiner's heart sunk. Funny? How was this funny? She had just ripped his heart out and was stepping on it! Squishing it like a bug! Stomping on it until it was nothing but a bunch of scattered atoms on a dirty stone walkway!

"Request for a romantic dinner for two with me is ultimately accepted, Adelbert Steiner." Quistis motioned for him to stand up. Once he did, she laughed and tighted the grip on his hand.

Steiner grinned, walking off into the sunset, hand-in-hand with Quistis Trepe.

Zidane stood there, staring in disbelief. She actually fell for that crap? Zidane crossed his arms.

Show off.
